AN: There is not much progress, but please pardon it this time. I've to do it before leaving because it is very serious!

　That day there was a visitor in the morning.

　The ident.i.ty of the visitor was Torsan, the owner of the new inn.

　Currently, He also works at the dining hall, he is the person who is in charge of food and living place for adventurers in the village.

　He looks young, a little small but it's in the category of good youth. Even though he is still 20 years old, his cooking is quite a thing. It can't be compared with the dish I cooked.

　But when I cook, Alicia always helps me, so many adventurers are comparing with between "Tora's taste, Moe Yumir".

　Anyway, even though Torsan is a newcomer, his influence is immeasurable.

　To welcome such a person, I dressed up a little bit and gave some hospitality.

　Today I used a lemon colored blouse skirt with a light green belt.

　I don't want to wear a Magic Knight costume at home. That is cute but it's a little bit stiff.

“I'm sorry for coming early in the morning. A little problem happened at the inn ……”

“No it's fine, but if you have a problem, isn't going to the guild much better?”

　I served Morax milk and added Suri fruit as sugar to Alicia and Tora.

　Sugar is not available yet in the labyrinth and it's a valuable item that can only be obtained from trade.

　Alicia crushed the fruit with a spoon and made it into strawberry milk.

　Looking at her, Torsan also crushed the fruit in the same way and took a sip.

“Hou … there is also a way to drink like this”

“Isn't it normal to mix something with milk?”

“There is. But it's an idea of the customer itself. Normally, the dish is always served with the finished product. And also, you can adjust the taste……. “

“No, then what do you want with me?”

“Ah, I'm sorry!”

　Torsan who is commenting about the strawberry milk began to return into the original topic.

　Don't tell me this person is also a workaholic……

“Actually a problem happened at the inn so I went to the guild, but Hill-san said that I should talk to you here -“

“Hill-san did? I wonder if he is trying to do something troublesome again … so, what is the problem?”

“Yes, actually it's about the toilet.”

　In this village, two layers of acid slime are used for excrement treatment.

　Acid slime contains very strong acids, it can melt almost everything other than gold and gla.s.s.

　The toilet is made by using this const.i.tution, digging a hole, baking the surface of the hole, throw the slime into it and put a cover.

　This toilet is very useful in the village where neither water nor sewer is present.

　Without it, the residents will have difficulty handling excrement.

　And the slime is satisfied with the food (excrement and garbage), especially since it doesn't intend on escaping.

　No, in the first place it's unknown whether it had intelligence or not.

　Anyway, the slime eats the excrement and grows.

　Not only that, but it also eats garbage including vegetable waste and wood sc.r.a.ps as well.

　Slime toilet can handle the waste disposal without fuel, seriously an all-purpose tool.

　Then, it can't be helped if it grew more as you feed it.

　But here in the middle of the gra.s.sland. Although it's humid to a certain degree, the slime which is rich with moisture dries.

　Eating, growing, drying and shrinking.

　In this past year, the slimes have been living while repeating such a cycle.

　However, there was a case where this balance collapsed.

　When the inn was completed.

　Two toilets were made in the inn on the a.s.sumption that a large number of guests will gather at the inn. It was because the toilet was needed to be divided for men and women.

　But that wasn't enough.

　Because of the oversupplied food.

“The slime grew and overflowed?”

“Yes, there are many adventurers staying at my inn. There's no way close a whole village, but there will be about 30 people.”

　Since there are 15 parties in this village, and about 40% are staying at the inn.

　And also thirty people give food to the slime.

“It will be 30 people including the employees, and perhaps even more for non-guest from the dining hall”

“It was a balance for 5 - 10 people until now. I see it should be overflowing right?”

　Now I understand why Hill-san gave this work to me.

　It is easy to deal with it if the guild took this problem.

　If it increased, you can just reduce it. In other words, if you get rid of the slime, things will be easily be taken care off.

　However, it would be sad for him to discard the slime that had worked so hard.

　I've lived here for a long time so I understand your kindness.

　Since it increased, to decrease it, it needed a place to divide.

“So it will go to my place, right?”

　Originally I was the one who invented the slime toilet.

　Besides, it's not bad to respond to unexpected Hill-san's humanism (?) expectation. (EN: Not sure about this one)

“Un, still …… I want to return it to the labyrinth ……”

“Isn't that the same as disposing of indirectly right?”

“Well…yeah”

　Acid slime that is encountered in the labyrinth is dangerous monster.

　And the adventurers will immediately kill it as soon as they encountered it, so there is no difference from disposing of.

　Well, it may be a mistake to have the idea of rewarding a monster …… that is that, but I'm a j.a.panese who likes cute things. [TN: I don't know if this right or not] (EN: I don't know if the slimes are cute tho.)

“Hmm, set up a new cabin? And if it still can't afford it …… oh, that's right!”

“Yu, did you come up with something? Slchan is all right?”

“What with that “Slchan”…”

“Because it's slime so it's Slchan!”

　No, there is no one that treats monsters for waste like pets … well, it's fine though.

　However, there is a problem where there are only two people living, giving a poor nutritional environment for the slimes.

“Anyway, the overflowing problem, you can put it somewhere else right?”

“That's right … as expected you're going to return it to the labyrinth?”

“No, let's arrange for a new place”

　I decided to go out with Torsan.

　The destination is Aldo-san's place.

　Recently Aldo-san is busy making a fence for the village.

　This village, compared to the base of importance, the protection is bad.

　There's no need to worry about the military because of the guild, but there are still people who want to mess with that kind of thing.

　Clearly, it's about thief and monsters.

　Since this place is originally lawless, the guild took some consideration.

　It's not surprising that there are some people aiming for this village which produces large quant.i.ties of woods, feathers, furs, and food came.

　Recently, metal, quartz, fluorite have been discovered. The one who can get it is only me though.

　Anyhow, trading with this village is very profitable. And there are people who will attack a caravan.

　It's about time for a bandit came targeting the caravan route and monsters who aim at the place where people are gathering.

　And the current state of this village is a defenseless city.

　There are no fences that protect the village and there are only wooden huts lining up.

　If it's burned, it will burn well. And the gra.s.s is very tall here.

　And there is only one well to extinguish the fire.

　That's why Aldo-san began to build a fence for defense recently.

“So, what are you going to do with the slime?”

“Let's dig a waterway. It will be good at killing an invader if it flows there”

“You guys, don't think about evil things”

　In the first place, the waterway is for stopping the invaders, so releasing slime to the waterway is too much.

　But there's only a little water in this village which is necessary to make a waterway. So I thought it's better to throw the slime there instead.

　I'm not saying to fill the waterway with slime.

　In fact, it's possible to give pressure to people to enter the waterway if there are slime inside the waterway.

　Also, there is no water in the waterway, so there is no problem for the slime to overflow.

　If it rains, the amount will increase, but by seeing the situation of this half year, it won't overflow because it will dry out and return to normal.

　Acid slime will dry up and evaporate when the water is gone and will leave a nucleus like a small ball.

　However, as long as the nucleus is safe, it will regenerate and grow again from moisture and food.

　On a daily basis, it's just a normal dry waterway.

　However, as soon as you step inside, the slimes will attack you.

　Such a defense was floating in my mind.

“Well, it's fine. This place is not rich in water anyway. But it will be dangerous if you fall over, but I think it is perfect for defense”

“Right, right!”

“Slchan is moving!”

　Alicia and I jumped excitedly and insisted on Aldo-san.

　Because I felt a warm gaze from the surroundings, I quickly cleared my throat. I feel like I've been influenced by Alicia recently. And also because this girl is very cute.

“Kohon, can I move the slime into a waterway like that?”

“Well, we have been taken care of by them anyway. So if it's harmless, I don't mind.”

“Hooray!”

“However! I'm going to dig the moat, so you are going to carry it okay?”

　I paled a little as he told so.

　Speaking of which, the number of gla.s.s bottles that slime can't melt is small.

　It will be quite troublesome to put them in the bottle and carry them. Moreover, it's in the toilet.

“Ugh … I understood. I'll do it.”

　Well, originally it was my invention anyway.

　Because I made the toilet for the inn with the usual condition, so I've to deal with it.

　I borrowed a cart from Aldo-san, and load the empty bottle then visited the inn.

　Furthermore, I installed a string attached to the bottle to the tip of a rod-shaped wood to fix the bottle.

　I scooped up the slime and put it on the cart.

　Since slime completely digests the excrement and converts it into its own ma.s.s, there are quite few smell related to excrement.

　But still, a toilet is a toilet.

　It is hard to say that it is clean, and the smell still remains. This might be the hardest job I've ever done since I came into this world. [TN: Hahaha, poor Yumir]

“Later …… I'll make some perfume”

“Cmelly(Smelly)”

“Sorry, be patient a little bit. Let's take a bath together after we finish.”

“Un”

　Recently, a merchant taught me how to make soap and I asked for the missing material and made some handmade soap.

　Limone – It has a lemon aroma and Alicia like it.

　This is the favorite because it doesn't need perfume and the smell remains after a bath.

　My soap is Limone and Alicia's soap is Suri, which are made separately and enjoying the smell in the bath. (EN: Sorry, I don't know how to edit this )

　Thinking about the fun after work while desperately scooping the slime.

　Because scooping the slime didn't work like an alchemy reaction, it took all day to move it.

　Well, it is nice to not dispose the slime that had been taking care of us. Well, it's a dull sentiment though.
